Description

Signed by the entire Eisenhower cabinet

Vintage matte-finish 10 x 8 photo of Eisenhower and his cabinet, taken in January 1953, signed above or below their respective images in ink by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Vice President Richard Nixon, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, Secretary of the Treasury George Humphrey, Secretary of Defense Charles E. Wilson, Attorney General Herbert Brownell, Budget Director Joseph Dodge, Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare Oveta Culp Hobby, White House Chief of Staff Sherman Adams, Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks, United Nations Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., Secretary of the Interior Douglas McKay, Postmaster General Arthur Summerfield, Secretary of Labor Martin P. Durkin, Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson, and Mutual Security Agency Director Harold Stassen. Reverse bears Wide World Photos stamps. In very good to fine condition, with creasing to the corners, and poor contrast to a few of the signatures, including Nixon. Photographs signed by Eisenhower and his entire cabinet, especially those from the start of his administration—Durkin served only from January to September of 1953—are exceedingly rare.
